Saddle Maker Stitching Leather in Thrissur Workshop
by Violet Orr
Pale walls reflect soft dawn light across a cluttered workshop floor in Thrissur. A saddle maker sits at a wooden tree, hands guiding thick leather through a rhythmic stitching motion. The wood grain of the saddle tree runs deep and dark, against the tan hide. Tools rest on a nearby bench, their metal surfaces dull in the indirect glow. Muted reflections stretch along the floorboards, showing the faint outline of the workbench legs. Dust motes hang still in the air, illuminated by the first light filtering through a high window. The turn of seasons is visible in the weight of the leather and the cool, quiet stillness of the room. A needle pierces the hide, pulling thread taut against the grain.
